French term (edited):
part de n�gatif
Selected
(100% ) of the negative of the film
based on the additional information, and comments from Dusty :
I broke it down this way,
Le concedant déclare
représenter
100%
de part de négatif
sur le film."
It would mean that the "concédant" owns the (private copy of) film as well as 100% of the negative of the film.
It happens that someone owns a film (or a photo/many photos)but not the negative - since the negative is normally used (not so much any more) for printing additional copies, it is worth a lot.
